The Cabin by the Lake
Chapter 16
Dennis received a phone call. He and Kyle were needed back at the
lake. There were three parties coming and only two guides at
headquarters. They headed for the lake. So much for taking a little time
off.
Kyle called his parents and asked if they could delay their visit for
awhile until things slowed a bit. They agreed and said they would try again
in two weeks. It was getting toward the end of the summer season, the pack
trips would start becoming fewer and fewer.
Winter was probably coming early this year. The leaves at the higher
elevations were beginning to get a little color. There was a cold nip in
the air, especially in the early mornings and evening. The mountain peaks
had a little dusting of snow on the tops.
The last trip before school started had been completed. Kyle called his
parents and told them they could come and stay as long as they wanted. Kyle
and Dennis wanted to take them on a short pack trip. The boys dug out the
cold weather camping gear and warm clothes. This time of year was the
favorite of theirs. Not only were there less people but the fall colors
were beautiful, making the scenery beyond belief. Wildlife could be seen in
abundance and it was fun to watch them scurrying around preparing for
winter.
Kyle and Dennis spent their free time between the summer pack trips and
hunting season cleaning and repairing equipment. After hunting season the
animals would be moved to Christmas Valley for the winter. They would store
all the gear in the barn and thus it would be ready to use when needed
again. They had just returned from taking a load to the barn . Kyle froze
in his tracks and turned as white as ghost. There was a man sitting on the
front porch swing. Dennis knew instantly that this was the source of Kyle's
anxiety.
"What are you doing here? How did you find me? You know that your
restraining order is still in effect," shouted Kyle. "Get out of here now!"
"Relax, Kyle, I mean no harm! I just want to talk and then I will disappear
and out of your life forever," replied the man.
Dennis just walked into the house and slipped his revolver underneath his
shirt and went back out on the porch. "I thought you were asked to
leave. Now, I am telling you to go before things get nasty."
"I have no quarrel with you. Why don't you just go back in the house and
let me talk with Kyle alone. He's a big boy now and doesn't need anyone to
fight his battles for him. again. Do you know who I am?" asked the man.
"Yes, I know who you are and what kind of person you are. You're Kyle's
ex. I must say you are not welcome here and I would suggest you leave
now. I won't ask you again," ordered Dennis.
"Look, Mister, this is just between Kyle and me. So why don't you just go
in the house and leave us alone. All I ask is five minutes," pleaded the
man.
"That's up to Kyle. However, I am staying. What do you think, Kyle?"
inquired Dennis.
"Toby, I think you are just wasting your time, but you have five minutes
and not a second more. Your time starts now," said Kyle, looking at his
watch.
"Kyle, you and I had a good thing going, but I managed to throw it all
away. But that's not the reason that I'm here. I've come to realize that
what we had is completely over, and I have no intentions of trying to
rekindle a dead fire," said Toby, pausing and taking a deep breath.
"Why, then, are you here? By the way, how did you find me, and how did you
get here? There is no car here. I know you didn't just walk, you're too
damn lazy to do that," said Kyle.
"I have a friend who works for the phone company. He was able to trace the
calls your folks made. Finally, he got lucky and found a call made to your
cell. Then all he had to do was look you up and get an address."
"Look, poop for brains, that is all illegal. What is your friends name? I
bet that I know him. I'm afraid your friend and you are in deep trouble and
you both will probably be arrested," Kyle said.
" It is Mark Little, and yes you know him. I know I`m in serious trouble! I
am desperate and had to find you. As to how I got here, I hitched a ride
and will leave the same way. I need your help. You're my last chance. I
hope that we can put the past behind us and make a new beginning," pleaded
Toby.
"If you're thinking in a romantic way, then just forget it Buster. You had
your chance once and blew it big time. You're history as far as I'm
concerned. I want nothing more to do with you. So why don't you just leave
now while you are still able to? I'm able to hold my own now and I don't
need anyone to fight my battles for me. I can and should just beat your ass
to pulp like you did to me until my friend stepped in and took control. I
feel nothing but contempt for you," exclaimed Kyle.
"I've absolutely no interest in you whatsoever. I just need a place to hide
until I can get enough money to lose myself. Then, I'll be out of your life
forever," said Toby.
"Toby, you are out of my life now, so give me one good reason, why I should
trust you or even want to help you. Two things for sure: One, you can't
stay here. Two, you'll get not one red cent from me. So I'll say again, be
on your way!" said Kyle, with a very agitated look.
"Kyle, I have no other place to go and absolutely no money. I have to lose
myself completely or spend the rest of my life in prison. I had a lover and
I went into one of my jealous rages and beat him to death. The law is just
one step behind me. I just want to get away and start a new life," shouted
Toby.
"You want me to help! Get out of here, now!" roared Kyle.
Toby made a fist and took a step toward Kyle. Dennis took his pistol out
and pointed it at Toby. "One more step, and you will be filled with
holes. You will look like one big water bag full of holes. Don't get me
wrong. I know how to use this gun and I can hit where I am aiming. You'll
be filled with bullets, and none of them will hit a vital organ. I want you
to suffer like you made Kyle and the other man suffer. Now hit the deck! On
your belly with your hands on your head! One false move and you've had it!"
commanded Dennis.
"I don't have a quarrel with you. So why don't you put the gun away?"
implored Toby.
"Now, this is my last warning!" shouted Dennis. "Move it!"
Toby did as he was told. Dennis went over and searched him for
weapons. "Kyle, go into the house and get the handcuffs. We can cuff him to
the corner post and then call the police. You, there on the floor, don`t
even bat an eye or you`re history!" said Dennis with anger in his voice.
"Please, let me go!" begged Toby.
"Shut up. I have had enough from you. Give my ears a break," sneered
Dennis.
Kyle returned with the handcuffs. "OK, get up and stand behind the corner
post, facing it and extend you arms around it. Kyle will place the
handcuffs on your wrists. Then, we will just wait until the police arrive
and haul your sorry ass off to jail," Dennis said unsympathetically. "Maybe
we should get some duct tape for your mouth, and then we won't have to
listen to you."
After Toby was safely secured to the post and his mouth covered with tape,
Dennis and Kyle went into the house and made their call to the police.
"Do you think we are doing the right thing?" asked Kyle.
"Absolutely, Toby has to be held responsible for his actions. We can't just
turn him loose and let him repeat this behavior again. If we don't turn him
in, we could face charges for aiding and abetting. He is not worth jail
time for us," said Dennis.
"I agree. I am so scared, and I keep thinking that something will go
wrong," Kyle said with a frown on his face and shaking like a wet dog.
"Kyle, relax! We have everything under control. We can't play any `what if'
games. Some things we have no control over and we can't mess up our heads
trying to change them. We'll just have to cross the bridges as we come to
them. One thing for certain, we'll cross them together," said Dennis in a
reassuring way.
"Dennis, please just hold me for a few minutes and then I will be
ok. Thanks, Dennis! You're my hero, and I love you with all my
heart. You're right, let's go out and tell that SOB what is in store for
him. I'm glad we have his mouth taped. I just know what he would be
yelling," grinned Kyle.
Soon the deputy sheriff arrived to take Toby into custody. "You know, guys,
this is one bad dude. I ran his name through the files and he has a rap
sheet as long as your arm, including murder. His friend Mark Little is
clean. I'm glad that you gave it to me when you called. You're lucky that
he was unarmed. It could have been a bad scene. Guys, will you please try
to stay out of trouble? It is getting old coming to your rescue all the
time," laughed Officer Tom.
"Tom, you know it's your job to protect us. It seems like we do all the
dangerous work, and you get the credit. Be careful on the way back to the
station and don't pick up any hitchhikers. You're too good of a guy to lose
and we'd sure hate to break in someone new. We'll call if we need you again
and next time try not to take so long getting here." laughed Dennis. "By
the way, are you and your family going to make it to the barbeque next
weekend? We have your name on the list of the first hunters that will be
going out. Don`t forget to ask for the time off."
Tom replied, "You bet we are. A person can't pass up a free meal. You just
don't realize how much food two teenage boys can put away. I think
sometimes my wife and I will both have to work two jobs just to keep
up. When will we be going on the hunting trip?"
"We're taking just friends and relatives out the first weekend of archery
season which will be open for both deer and elk. We'll be out for four
days. You know you could always come to work for us. We would pay you just
enough to buy ointment to rub on your saddle sores," laughed Kyle.
"That's what I'm afraid of. I think I'll just stay with the Sheriff's
department and just complain," laughed Tom. "I think I will just leave the
tape on this guy so it will be nice and quiet going to Bend."
"You know that would be cruel and unusual punishment. I'd just suggest
rolling up the divider window. Hey, Tom, I want to pull the tape off. I
want just one more piece of revenge, and then I through with him forever,"
Kyle reached up and pulled the tape off with one big jerk.
"Hey, that hurt like hell!" yelled Toby.
"Just be glad that it was not wrapped around your dick. You would't need a
wax job. I can just hear you screaming," laughed Kyle. "Tom, you had better
get him out of here before I decide to wrap his whole body in duct tape and
then rip it off. That would be a lot of fun. He is one hairy dude. I know
for sure. So we will see you at the barbeque."
"Bye guys! Go have some fun!" said Tom, and he was gone.
"I think I need to go and soak in the hot tub for about an hour. I am all
tied in knots," said Kyle.
"I'm ready also. How would you like a good back massage?" asked Dennis.
"I think I need more than just a back massage. How about my whole body, and
I don't mean the part that you like to massage so well. But you can massage
it, too, if you'd like," grinned Kyle.
"You're on! Let's go!" Dennis said as he was stripping.
